Police say the night before, she shot her 13-year-old son Beau as he sat in the front seat of the family mini van in the garage and then went upstairs where she shot her 16-year-old daughter as she did her homework.

U.S. Army Colonel Parker Schenecker, her husband and father of the teens is heading back to the United States. He was stationed in Qatar with US Army Intelligence.

Many of Calyx and Beau's friends didn't learn about what happened until they got home from school on Friday. Immediately though, they banded together to grieve, organizing memorials and creating memorial pages on Facebook.
